On Saturday, 31st August, the Men’s golf competition was a 4BBB Medley Stableford sponsored by Cahill Footwear. The sunshine encouraged 70 players to come along and participate, with the sponsor Marty Cahill making an appearance after winter.
The Men’s winning pair of Archie Quirk and Wayne O’Niell streaked away from the field with their 50 points. The runners-up were Anthony and Lachlan Alley who could only muster 46 points.
A Ladies team comprising Linda Cowhan and Ann-Maree Gaffney, with 42 points, led the Ladies surge.
An individual Stableford event was held in conjunction with the teams event. The winner of that was Archie Quirk with his 46 points. He undoubtedly will suffer at the hands of the Handicapping system.
The NTP’s were: 9th Men: L Flakelar, Ladies: S Black; 18th Men: S French, Ladies:
C Venables. The Pro Shop Superpin, went to Luke Flakelar who finished well inside the next best.
